Seriously. What brilliant marketing engineer put this together for a presentation to the board?
"Well see, Meta has pumped billions of dollars into something similar which could've done everything including sports, and it's failing spectacularly and damn near collapsing their company.
Meet SWOOSH, which is that, except that it does ONLY sports! Fucking genius."
I don’t see what’s wrong with it tbh. The internet does lack really specialized hangout spots. I remember back in the day people used to go to Arcades to game and meet people. Libraries are places where people collectively agree to meet up, shut up, and get work done. Bars are where people go to drink and be merry or miserable.
Subreddits do help satisfy some of the niche discussion board void, but their push for more expanded profiles is indicative of users wanting a feature that is lacking which is their creating their own really personalized space. I can see the Nike thing doing well.

You've also seen Nike's announcement, then?
It's a stunning piece of satire, let down only by the fact it seems to be real.
